Corn? In China? That's improbable?!

Corn trifecta complete

maybe cuba and chavez can swing by and seed some clouds.

Ultis: Corn trifecta complete

I has many corms

Definitely read that as porn output...

at least they will have less chunky stools.

To counter the shortfall, maybe they should start growing a bigger variety.

And this looks bad...for Obama.

blazemongr: Ultis: Corn trifecta complete

I'm amaized you came up with that.

Does America export corn or beef or anything corn based to China?

OMG, corn hole bag shortage headed this way!

SeamusFerrell: Does America export corn or beef or anything corn based to China?

If any fine women over there would like to import some hot American beef, I'd be willing to help.

Hmm, North Korea is right next to China's North East region. Another drought there really could make things interesting.

I've seen it with Ironic, FAIL, and Sick, but rarely do you see Interesting tag abuse. How in the hell can you say that article was interesting?

It's not news its... oh, wait, now it's news.

Let them eat (rice) cake!

I could escape this feeling, with my China Corn
I feel hungry without my, little China Corn
I feel my heart beating, loud as thunder
From all the butter

I'm a mess without my little China Corn
Wake up in the morning. Where's my, little China Corn?
I feel my heart beating, loud as thunder
From all the butter

I'm feelin' hungry like I'm Marlon Brando
When I look at my China Corn
I could pretend that carrots really meant too much
When I look at my China Corn

I stumble into town just like a sacred cow
Visions of buttered corn in my head
Plans for everyone
It's in the ears of my corn

My little China Corn
You shouldn't be messy
I'll eat everything you have
I'll give you butter
I'll give you ears of green
I'll give you a man who wants to butter everything

And when I get excited
My buttered China Corn melts
Oh baby just you wipe your mouth
It melts... shh
It melts... shh
It melts
It melts

I'm sure they can find some used corn at a discounted price.

That was the newsiest headline I have seen in a while.

Seriously, is this Fark or the AP wire?

ZAZ: Weird. Is China's government using price supports as a means to compensate for year to year fluctuations in output, rather than as a means of buying farm votes and maintaining long term high prices?

I know, right? I'd hate to think we'd have anything to learn from those filthy commies...

This trifecta is bad, and you should all feel bad.

This, at the same time Restaurant City on facebook makes a new corn dish?

SomeCapn: Corn? In China? That's improbable?!

Corn? In my China?

Good. This will either mean we can start sending ours to them or they will have a population correction. It's win-win.

Yet hollywoods output continues unabated

Since gorgor didn't do it....

DISAPPROVES (new window/Possibly NSFW)

...I don't remember eating any corn.

Does this mean they will resort to eating baby corn?

it has nothing to do with global warmings, according to genius ex-president bushie.

Begin, the corn wars will...

Ya know, we could sell them some of our excess corn at a higher rate, and help ourselves out. Oh Yeah, I forgot that a lot of farms went under before all this Houseforclosing Shiat happened. Oh well. It was a thought.

Why, exactly, is this green?

I don't get the joke in the headline.

knightscross4ever: Ya know, we could sell them some of our excess corn at a higher rate, and help ourselves out. Oh Yeah, I forgot that a lot of farms went under before all this Houseforclosing Shiat happened. Oh well. It was a thought.

Were the failed farms bought out by large farming corporations who can use the land more efficiently, or are they sitting abandoned? Also, I thought that in America corn prices were sky high recently. Why would farms fail? This is also why I think America might not have a lot of corn to export to China.

But I am not a farmer or a trader. That is why I ask.

Lutwidge: This, at the same time Restaurant City on facebook makes a new corn dish?

Well, to be fair, restaurant city was suffering from an unreasonable corn surplus, however I wonder where said corn originated...perhaps..NORTHEASTERN CHINA?! /insert dramatic sound affect/lightning

I live around a lot of farms (Work on some when growing up), and a lot of them turned to 25-year cycle "Tree Farming" in the late 80s to head off foreclosures. Big companies used to wait on the steps of local courthouses to buy up auctioned foreclosed farms (bad loans made by poor farmers who had too high an expectation of crop returns during some dry years), hence the expression here someone dying "Bought the Farm". The spike in corn prices recently I would attribute to biofuel research bandwagon. shiat, there's been enuff research on "consumable biofuel" from distilled corn products - Clear, shiny, and GOOD from the mountains of Tennessee.

I'm pretty sure "bought the farm" is way older than the 1980's. I always thought it started with WWI pilots who got shot down and crashed into farms. But this is off topic.

Also off topic, where I live in the summer all gas stations must use a mixture of corn based ethanol blended with regular gasoline. This results in wear on the engine (rubber and aluminum parts), worse gas mileage, and more pollution. Surprise! I live in a huge corn producing state.

I think that "bought the farm" is centuries old, and originated with what an old soldier planned to do when he stopped fighting, even when he stopped by dieing.
And I support corn threads.
